Windstream Doubles Access Speed

Windstream has doubled the Internet speeds available across most of its 16-state network, offering 12 Mbps service in certain areas and expanding the availability of 3 Mbps and 6 Mbps service. The company now offers 3 Mbps service to virtually all of its broadband addressable lines as a result of the network upgrade.

“Windstream experienced a four-fold increase in Internet usage in 2007 as our broadband customer base grew 28 percent year-over-year,” says Ric Crane, executive vice president and chief marketing officer.

Windstream high-speed Internet service is available at any speed – including 12 Mbps, 6 Mbps, 3 Mbps and 1.5 Mbps – for $19.99 per month for the first six months with qualifying services in participating areas.
